Checklist Post

If the content you are delivering can be broken into a “checklist” it will often perform better. On average, people like the checklist format because it’s easy to digest and take action when the content is itemized in this way.

Ultimate Guide Post

The ultimate guide post is just what it sounds like — a detailed, comprehensive post on any one topic in your niche. Don’t skimp here — take your time and deliver the most definitive blog post on the topic.

Series Post

Look for opportunities to break a topic into a blog post series that can be released each day over the course of a week or every Monday over the course of a month. Link these articles together as you publish them.

Interview Post

It’s surprising how willing even the most influential people are to give you an interview — even if you have a small audience on your blog. Remember that the easiest way for an influencer to give you an interview is through audio — all they have to do is call you and start talking.

Link Roundup

This type of post can work well as a series that publishes once a month or once a week. Curate, link to and provide a description of multiple pieces of content that your audience will find valuable. Remember to notify those that you link to via email or social media to give yourself the maximum opportunity to get the post shared.

Review Post

Review a product, event or anything else you have access to while it is newsworthy. For best results, be as honest as possible in your review rather than painting everything you review in a positive light.

News Post

Look to create content on your blog about events as they are happening. You don’t need to “break” the story but, for best results, be sure to add a perspective that your audience will find valuable or entertaining.

The Classic Rant

The rant post shows your human side by revealing your passion and anger about a topic that is relevant to your audience. It’s not for everyone but the right blog and the right audience will respond well to a rant.

Product Usage Tips

This post type is both promotional and useful and is very powerful for the right blog and audience. Create content that helps your customers be more successful with your product or service.

TIP: Prospects will read these too.

“What If” Post

This type of blog post speculates on what would happen if… The success of this type of post rests on your ability to choose a “what if” that is interesting and debatable.

Debate Post

Use your blog to present one side of a debatable argument… or find someone that disagrees with you and present both sides in the same post.

Attack Post

Be careful with this one but picking a fight with the right person/ organization/event, etc will force your audience to choose sides and draw lots of attention. This type of post, when done right, will create enemies of some and die hard fans of others.

Predictions

Post a Reaction

Use your blog to react to content created by someone else. For example, the content might be a blog post, book or presentation.

Question Post

Curate and answer questions your audience asks in social media, on forums or in the comments section of your blog.

Answer Post

The Answer Post is the sister of the Question Post.

In this blog post type, you will simply ask a question and allow your audience to answer it in your comments section. This type of post is generally very short, allowing your audience to create the bulk of the content.

Challenge

Use a blog post to pose a challenge to your audience. This post can work well as a series with updates being made that feature audience members that are participating in the challenge.

Customer Showcase

This blog post type is partly promotional but also builds engagement with prospects and customers alike.

Freebies Post

Use a blog post to allow your audience to get access to a relevant giveaway…

This is really a big collection of blog niche. I was going through with some other article on same topic but found them old and generic.

I would like to add as well, few are some of the upcoming and future ready blog niche that has been less explored.
– Journey to mars
– Electric car care
– Drone care and performance related blogs
-Digital wearables

Wearables has been overexplored… now that Buzzfeed has taken it to hypothetical bed after last call, this usually means a topic is soon to be dead, ruined and editorially / culturally neutered (after defilement is finished)…
